Authority for This Rulemaking
The FAA’s authority to issue rules
regarding aviation safety is found in
Title 49 of the United States Code.
Subtitle I, Section 106 describes the
authority of the FAA Administrator.
Subtitle VII, Aviation Programs,
describes in more detail the scope of the
agency’s authority. This rulemaking is
promulgated under the authority

section, the FAA is charged with
prescribing regulations to assign the use
of airspace necessary to ensure the
safety of aircraft and the efficient use of
airspace. This regulation is within the
scope of that authority, as it would
amend and establish Class E airspace in
Bar Harbor, ME, to support IFR
operations in the area.

Availability and Summary of
Documents for Incorporation by
Reference
This document proposes to amend
FAA Order 7400.11E, Airspace
Designations and Reporting Points,
dated July 21, 2020, and effective
September 15, 2020. FAA Order
7400.11E is publicly available as listed
in the ADDRESSES section of this
document. FAA Order 7400.11E lists
Class A, B, C, D, and E airspace areas,
air traffic service routes, and reporting
points.
The Proposal
The FAA proposes an amendment to
14 CFR part 71 to amend Class E surface
airspace for Hancock County-Bar Harbor
Airport by increasing the radius from
4.2 miles to 5.5 miles, and eliminating
the extensions off the 204° and 024°
bearings respectively. The Class E
airspace extending up from 700 feet
above the surface for Hancock CountyBar Harbor would be amended by
increasing the radius from 7.4 miles to
8.0 miles, and adding an extension 3.7
miles each side of the Hancock CountyBar Harbor Airport 025° bearing
extending from the 8.0-mile radius to
11.4 miles northeast of the airport. In
addition the geographical coordinates of
Hancock County-Bar Harbor Airport
would be updated. This action would
also establish Class E airspace extending
upward from 700 feet above the surface
for Bar Harbor Heliport.
Class E airspace designations are
published in Paragraphs 6002 and 6005,
respectively, of FAA Order 7400.11E,
dated July 21, 2020, and effective
September 15, 2020, which is
incorporated by reference in 14 CFR
71.1. The Class E airspace designations
listed in this document will be
published subsequently in the Order.
FAA Order 7400.11, Airspace
Designations and Reporting Points, is
published yearly and effective on
September 15.
Regulatory Notices and Analyses
The FAA has determined that this
proposed regulation only involves an
established body of technical
regulations for which frequent and
routine amendments are necessary to
keep them operationally current. It,
therefore: (1) Is not a ‘‘significant
regulatory action’’ under Executive
Order 12866; (2) is not a ‘‘significant
rule’’ under DOT Regulatory Policies

Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 87 / Friday, May 7, 2021 / Proposed Rules
and Procedures (44 FR 11034; February
26, 1979); and (3) does not warrant
preparation of a Regulatory Evaluation
as the anticipated impact is so minimal.
Since this is a routine matter that will
only affect air traffic procedures and air
navigation, it is certified that this
proposed rule, when promulgated, will
not have a significant economic impact
on a substantial number of small entities
under the criteria of the Regulatory
Flexibility Act.
Environmental Review
That airspace extending upward from 700
feet above the surface within an 8.0-mile
radius of Hancock County-Bar Harbor Airport
and 3.7 miles each side of the 025° bearing
extending from the 8.0-mile radius to 11.4
miles northeast from the airport, and that
airspace within a 6.0-mile radius of the Bar
Harbor Heliport.
Issued in College Park, Georgia, on April
28, 2021.

This proposal will be subject to an
environmental analysis in accordance
with FAA Order 1050.1F,

Procedures’’, prior to any FAA final
regulatory action.

Availability and Summary of Documents for Incorporation by Reference
This document proposes to amend FAA Order 7400.11E, Airspace
Designations and Reporting Points, dated July 21, 2020, and effective
September 15, 2020. FAA Order 7400.11E is publicly available as listed
in the ADDRESSES section of this document. FAA Order 7400.11E lists
Class A, B, C, D, and E airspace areas, air traffic service routes, and
reporting points.
The Proposal
The FAA proposes an amendment to 14 CFR part 71 to amend Class E
surface airspace for Hancock County-Bar Harbor Airport by increasing
the radius from 4.2 miles to 5.5 miles, and eliminating the extensions
off the 204[deg] and 024[deg] bearings respectively. The Class E
airspace extending up from 700 feet above the surface for Hancock
County-Bar Harbor would be amended by increasing the radius from 7.4
miles to 8.0 miles, and adding an extension 3.7 miles each side of the
Hancock County-Bar Harbor Airport 025[deg] bearing extending from the
8.0-mile radius to 11.4 miles northeast of the airport. In addition the
geographical coordinates of Hancock County-Bar Harbor Airport would be
updated. This action would also establish Class E airspace extending
upward from 700 feet above the surface for Bar Harbor Heliport.
Class E airspace designations are published in Paragraphs 6002 and
6005, respectively, of FAA Order 7400.11E, dated July 21, 2020, and
effective September 15, 2020, which is incorporated by reference in 14
CFR 71.1. The Class E airspace designations listed in this document
will be published subsequently in the Order.
FAA Order 7400.11, Airspace Designations and Reporting Points, is
published yearly and effective on September 15.
Regulatory Notices and Analyses
The FAA has determined that this proposed regulation only involves
an established body of technical regulations for which frequent and
routine amendments are necessary to keep them operationally current.
It, therefore: (1) Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under
Executive Order 12866; (2) is not a ``significant rule'' under DOT
Regulatory Policies
[[Page 24564]]
and Procedures (44 FR 11034; February 26, 1979); and (3) does not
warrant preparation of a Regulatory Evaluation as the anticipated
impact is so minimal. Since this is a routine matter that will only
affect air traffic procedures and air navigation, it is certified that
this proposed rule, when promulgated, will not have a significant
economic impact on a substantial number of small entities under the
criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.
Environmental Review
This proposal will be subject to an environmental analysis in
accordance with FAA Order 1050.1F, ``Environmental Impacts: Policies
and Procedures'', prior to any FAA final regulatory action.
